Like that wouldn't open up a great new way to cheat the ballot box. The vote is intended for individuals, not corporations. Why should your business get a vote?

Copied below is a letter to the editor submitted to the Delaware State News. You can post your opinions by clicking on "Reply."

A businessman operating a business under a Dover address should be allowed to vote in city elections. His home address should not make a difference. We have to abide by city laws, buy a city license, pay city taxes. This should give us the right to vote for the person we think is right to rule our city.
